Application forms are the epitome of boring. No one likes them – candidates are either overwhelmed by them, or they simply don’t want to spend the time or effort filling them in, so they go elsewhere. For recruiters, application forms aren’t even that great; they give us minimal useful information that we spend a matter of minutes reading. Instead, try asking candidates for expressions of interest and calling them to see what their skills are, think about setting up a more creative application process or set a short task that’s relevant to the role you’re advertising.
